leSpam?

I really don't think this would classify as spam as he is asking if anyone has played it.  Then again who knows, it is his first post. ;/ 

Looks like another generic Korean MMORPG grindfest to me though.

As much as I'd hate to encourage spam, I...actually like that game's art style.

EDIT: Oh my god I can't believe they're actually bragging about "unprecedented 3D freedom":

Journey through a vibrant, exotic world with full 3D directional support! Where other adventures only let you travel left and right, Dragonica lets you explore, fight, and socialize across all three dimensions.

What are you saying?!?!  That's an amazing breakthrough!!!  Ah, finally a game that takes away the limitations of traveling left and right! 
GET HYPE!

Insanity.
Pure, unadulterated insanity.

I actually interviewed for the Community Manager position for this MMO.  It's interesting in the FTP world, but it's not a game that I'd pick to play over WoW or EQ2.

No, not SPAM - just new to the forum.  Just heard it was HUGE in China (Dream Dragon) and if I'm going to invest 5000 hours playing a new FTP MMORPG, I wanted to make sure it was killer.  The graphic look awesome and the side-scrolling looks real kewl.

I saw a few interviews posted of the Euro producer, seems different.

If it is indeed huge in China, I wonder if it's due in any part to WoW being fucked hard by the government.  Wrath of the Lich King is still not released over in China and it doesn't look like it will be anytime soon due to government's problem with death knights and general disdain for the undead.

WOW is just getting too damn expensive. For me anyway.
From what I hear, Dragonica Online is very close to finish.  They only need to work out a few bugs and possibly do the final polish with the character skills.  Best thing this game have going for it so far is that the cash shop while adding a wide variety selection, it is mostly cosmetic and those that are are more for convience and not a major upgrade.  You have things like gold, xp boost potion, and potions (that fully heal you but have a cool down so you can't abuse), and other small things like upgrade insurance and skill resets.  The game play on the other hand is amazing, I haven't have that much fun since the good old Diablo II days.  It is fast paced twitch action chaos in a very comical situation.  Comparing this to Maple Story really don't do this game justice.  The only thing that is a bit annoying about the game so far is that amount of graphic some skill have.  Alone is it very nice, but when you have 4 player spamming skills left and right, it could get very chaotic and you can very easily lost track of your own character.
